My Summary
Postnatal Doula/Nanny/Babysitter
About Me
Hi Families,
I am an experienced postnatal doula and nanny. I offer specialist support for families postpartum and a range of services to support the transition. I also offer standard nannying and babysitting on an ad hoc basis, for families who need additional support on occasion. I have a lot of experience working with babies but have also worked with toddlers and primary school aged children. My main focus is offering practical support to help keep a comfortable environment for the families that I work with. As a nurturer, I am also deeply committed to providing emotional support and encouraging a calm environment. Furthermore, I am intentional in providing my professional advice for early child development, and keeping track of important milestones and health.
I am based in south London but regularly travel to clients who are further out. If you are interested in my services, please feel free to arrange a consultation with me and I will be happy to share more about my experience.

Modestine was amazing with our little baby and we couldn’t recommended her more highly.
She brought warmth, attentiveness, energy and genuine expertise every day she looked after M. She was an incredible help with both baby and mum, very trustworthy and communicative throughout her times with us.

Modestine came to me as a post-natal doula - she was exceptional and helped me a lot in my postpartum journey. She provided me lot of emotional support and helped with overall
Household activities. Modestine’s constant encouragement significantly improved my breastfeeding. She is highly professional and open in her communications. She made notes of my entire postpartum journey which I absolutely cherish now. I was very impressed with her doula work so I hired her as a nanny for my baby. Modestine quickly made strong connection with my baby and looked after her very well, helping with her milestones, feeding and keeping her properly stimulated. My daughter and I both miss her and hope she can work with us again in future. Modestine is natural with babies , she is kind and affectionate. I cannot recommend her enough.

Modestine came to work with us as a temporary, live-in, proxy parenting nanny while I was working abroad.
She agreed to look after my 5 year old daughter at very short notice when the previous one walked out, and we liked her straight away on first meeting.
Modestine lived in our home, taking full responsibility for all aspects of my DD's daily life, both in term time and also for the week of half term.
First of all, DD absolutely adored Modestine. Her manner and nature are simply fantastic. She is totally in tune with a child’s thinking, and the connection that she formed with DD was real and deep from very early. In addition, the way in which she
In terms of communication, again I was more than satisfied. Modestine did way more than I expected or had experienced previously with others
Her interactions with me were open, honest and clear. She facilitated video calls between me and DD whenever possible, and the way she spoke to DD & explained things was fantastic; perfect.
I would love to have Modestine work with us again, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her. I am also more than willing to take calls or emails from anyone who is considering hiring Modestine and has any questions.
